Review of Caché (2005) by Braxton W — 28 Jun 2011
Utterly superb, deeply unsettling study of paranoia and revenge. Haneke is at his most subdued, deftly handling the pulsating tension as the family are slowly and tragically unravelled by the ominous, ambiguous threats relentlessly received in the post.
Extremely intelligent, frightening and affecting, Haneke's least isolating picture to date is superbly acted, shot with his trademark master-hand and touched with terribly threatening and stagnantly atmospheric photography as he slowly builds to a horrific and brilliantly ambiguous finale.
Excellent stuff from the master craftsman himself.
